New materials, especially those that held promise for doing more with less, fascinated the Eameses thoughout their careers. Plastic was no exception. They saw in it the chance to form organic seat shells that conform to the body's shape. The Eameses adapted manufacturing techniques developed during World War II to mass-produce this design in side and armchair versions. As they typically did, the Eameses required that materials be expressed honestly and unselfconsciously so these were the first one-piece plastic chairs offered without upholstery or covering. Their enduring design and quality construction make them durable performers in many environments. Offered is an original Greige armshell; the Eames called the color Greige because of its subtle grey/beige color profile. This shell is featured in one of the original six colors offered by Herman Miller. The Greige shells are prized by collectors and interior designers for their interesting neutrality; this color compliments nearly every interior. we are offering the shell without a base; we get many requests from avid collectors who have many shells and prefer to rotate them among the few bases they already own. Please be aware that no base is included with this listing. If you would like a reproduction rocker, dowel or eiffel base please see our other listings. Domestic and International
